EDITORS COMMENTS
Andre-Adolphe-Eugene Disderi's panoramic group portrait of soldiers from the 37th and 39th battalions of the French National Guard, taken during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871, is a striking image capturing the defiant spirit of the French military during a time of national crisis. The black and white, albumen print on albumin paper, showcases a direct gaze from the soldiers as they proudly stand in their military uniforms, each one gazing intently at the camera. The soldiers' apparel, with its intricate details and distinctly nineteenth-century fashion, adds to the historic significance of the image. The panoramic format, which was popular during this era, allows for a wide view of the entire group, showcasing the vast number of men ready to defend their country. The soldiers are arranged in a letterbox format, with some standing in the foreground and others in the background, creating a sense of depth and dimension. This photograph was taken during the Siege of Paris, a significant event in French history, and is now part of the collection at the Musee Carnavalet in Paris, ile de France, France. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the courage and determination of the French military during a time of war and national upheaval. With its historic significance and artistic merit, Disderi's panoramic group portrait of soldiers is a valuable addition to the heritage of graphic arts and the annals of military history.
